This study focuses on the policy issues generated by the reintroduction of Liberal Studies and evaluates the predicted effectiveness
of the proposed curriculum in Hong Kong (HK) secondary schools. Theorised by Ball (1992) ‘policy cycle’, approximately 200
newspaper articles and 30 government documents were collected to identify the issues in the process of policy-making. The
documentary inquiry shows that ‘Public Recognition’, ‘Learning Objectives’ and ‘Curriculum Structure’ were the three major
issues surrounding the reintroduction. Little evidence of any ‘explicit’ political influence related to the government of
the People’s Republic of China (PRC) is demonstrated. The interviews conducted later in this study illustrate that there were
diversified opinions of the Liberal Studies curriculum. Whilst scholars and teachers disapproved of it, parents showed appreciation.
It seems that the stakeholders working in the education field were uncertain, divided and displeased with the process of policy-making.
A follow-up questionnaire-based survey clearly uncovered a sharp contrast between the beliefs of the teachers and the expectations
of the students with regard to Liberal Studies. In other words, the gap formed between the two showed considerable differences
in the level of satisfaction with the proposed curriculum. 相似文献
